[Hiring] Product Manager @Prendio - BioProcure

Role Description

Prendio sits at the center of how biotech companies find, contract with, and pay their research partners. There is a meaningful product opportunity across that journey, and we are bringing on a Product Manager to own it. This is a build role. You will do the discovery, decide what the product should be, and create the strategy and roadmap behind it. The space is still being defined, which is the point — the work starts with figuring out what is worth building, not with an inherited backlog. We are looking for someone who wants to define something rather than maintain it.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own the CRO product strategy.
• Form the product strategy for the CRO and supplier side of the business.
• Define where we should play in this market and communicate that story clearly.
• Conduct discovery with CROs, suppliers, and biotech customers.
• Work closely with internal teams already engaged in this space.
• Validate what is real and invalidate what is not.
• Identify where durable commercial value exists across the journey.
• Build a value narrative that holds up on both sides of the market.
• Prioritize where we have the best chance to win and sequence the work into a phased roadmap.
• Partner with CRO business leadership.
• Keep leadership current on discovery findings.
• Work across the company with product development, data, engineering, sales, and client-facing teams.
• Translate discovery and strategy into defined, executable products.
• Stay involved through delivery.

Where This Role Can Go:

This is a build role at the front end of something with real room to grow. The person who defines it is the natural person to lead it. Depending on performance and how the business develops, the path leads to senior or principal ownership of this portfolio, or to leading it as its own segment.

What Success Looks Like:

• Clear product strategy and a narrative the whole company can repeat.
• Opportunity areas have been tested; real value is identified.
• Defined, scoped products understood by the teams that have to build them.
• Phased roadmap built around where we can actually win.
• Work is on a credible path to meaningful revenue and business value.

Your First 90 Days:

• Meet internal teams closest to this space and absorb existing knowledge.
• Map the CRO journey end to end and identify real friction points.
• Run first-round discovery with CROs, suppliers, and biotech customers.
• Pressure-test existing knowledge and form a point of view on investment.
• Build working relationships with CRO business leadership.
• Deliver an initial strategy point of view with a recommended first phase.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in product management, with ownership of what gets built and why.
• Meaningful knowledge of the CRO ecosystem and how it works.
• Real zero-to-one experience in defining a product space.
• Strong discovery instincts and ability to validate or invalidate hypotheses.
• Able to connect customer problems to commercial models.
• Comfortable in ambiguity and energized by undefined spaces.
• Strong cross-functional communicator.

Helpful Background

• Product experience at a company serving CROs.
• Time spent inside a CRO or selling products to CROs.
• Biotech, life sciences, or supplier and vendor-side experience.
• Scientific background with exposure to contract research.
• Marketplace, two-sided platform, procurement, or sourcing product experience.
• SaaS or platform experience in a regulated or complex environment.

• BCBS Dental insurance - 100% of employee premiums paid.
• VSP Vision Coverage.
• Flexible Spending Account Healthcare.
• Health savings account with employer contribution.
